"I would say I find your particular brand of crack very amusing This isn't about a book..versus a football game, fellas. Oh, no. This is about men versus women. Women who aspire to culture... and men who aspire to scratch themselves. Women who bear the burdens in life and men who create those burdens. Women who uplift humanity and men who uplift lap dances." Deliver Us From Eva
Eva in this scene is using the common;"women vs men" to get her way, she puts the men down by using vocabulary that is unfamiliar to them. "Yes, but certainly the temporal proximity of our advents...isn't determ"inative, is it"

"I'faith sir you shall never to fear....I wis it is not half way to her heart; But if it were, doubt not her care should be...To comb your noodle with a three-legg'd stool...And paint your face and use you like a fool." The Taming of the Shrew Act1 Scene1


Although Eva and Katharina were fighting over different things, both scenes exhibits their anger and bitterness. Katharina is furious that her father would dear mention Bianca's name, where Eva is furious that the men are in the room that she plan to have her book club meeting.


"Eva is a piece of work, but we're prepared to make it worth your while to take her out.- Mike

You're gonna pay me to go out with her?-Ray
Are you worried that that makes you look like a gigolo? Tom
No. I mean, I kind of like that aspect. – Okay All right. I'm in a financial bind.-Ray" -

"Petruchio, shall I then come roundly to thee.....And wish thee to a shrewd ill-favour'd wife? Thou'ldst thank me but a little for my counsel: And yet I'll promise thee she shall be rich And very rich: but thou'rt too much my friend, And I'll not wish thee to her."The Taming of the Shrew Act1 Scenc2


In those to scenes the man are making a deal to get rid of the troublesome women in their lives, they want to be happy with the girls sisters. Ray and Petruchio are now out to win them over, being the shrews that they are it isn't easy. For both women midway through the stories they change. In Delive Us From Eva this is a bad thing.

Once Eva and Ray's relationship takes off, Eva's sister began to compare their relationships with Eva and Ray's.

Ray was falling so in love with Eva that he just had to tell her, when Petruchio never plan to tell his once shrew wife that he was asked to marry and tam her. Katharina and Eva who were once just alike become absolutely different, Katharina lost who she was; "Then God be blest it [is] the blessed sun......"The Taming of the Shrew" Act4 Scene5,
Although Katharina don't believe what she was say, she agreed to it because she was told to believe, where Eva was able to still form her own opinions.


When Ray wanted to tell Eva about the money and deal the men locked him up, using more lies to cover up their first one, telling Eva and their girls that Ray was died, this don't happened in The Taming of the Shrew, because Petruchio wasn't going to tell Katharina the truth. When Eva did find out she was heart broken, she felt she fell for a lie, she told him that he stole her chose to love him. Eva kept her old "bad girl" attitude till the very end unlike Katharina. Although at the end Eva still chose to be with Ray, this time it was HER CHOSE and not her brother-in-laws or Ray's, it was her decision. Where Katharina was never given one.
